TAR is interminable. And there’s an hour left.

From an interview with the producer of Beetlejuice.

What made you confident that you could return to Broadway?

The fans. Our cast album has streamed over 1.6 billion streams and individual tracks 2.9 billion times. Very few cast albums take off. You have your Hamiltons, you have your Dear Evan Hansens. We reached 100 million streams in 20 weeks. Just for comparison, Hamilton reached that in 18 weeks and Evan Hansen in 37 weeks. So these were things showing us that people really liked our show and that there was an audience. The Netherlings [the name of the musical’s fans] had become ambassadors for us, and they were pushing us to come back. It felt like it didn’t have an ending. It didn’t feel like it ended properly.

I am going to try to finish my book, The Song of the Cell, a fascinating look at how cells work from Siddhartha Mukherjee. I probably didn’t get half of it, but it is holding my attention.

Here's hoping for the same for DR vixmom.

Well, Vixmom, can you make a fist using only one hand?

I can!

Speaking of DR vixmom - well, I wouldn't want her to try this right now, but once she's back to 100%, I hope she'll consider incorporating this into her

My back is feeling much better.  Still getting spasms that make me cringe and need the cane and sturdy banister for stairs but sitting down and standing up are now possible without me shrieking

Finished with my viewing and have written 13 pages, so I might get to fifteen if I'm feeling up to it, although I have to be in bed by one because of the ten o'clock work session, which I completely forgot about.

George has gone down a rabbit hole or just doesn't care about late-night visits anymore so I'm afraid page six will be the new normal.
